In Atlantis Ragnarok, the calm mask of Earth's history is stripped away to reveal the chaos beneath.

Produktbeschreibung
In Atlantis Ragnarok, the calm mask of Earth's history is stripped away to reveal the chaos beneath. From the great ice sheets of the Pleistocene to the shattered gravels of forgotten continents, this work revisits the nineteenth-century debate between gradualism and catastrophe through modern eyes. Ignatius Donnelly's once-ridiculed vision of a world consumed by cosmic fire becomes the entry point for a sweeping investigation of impacts, floods, and mythic memory-a scientific and poetic synthesis that connects geology, archaeology, and ancient storytelling. Across pages of gravel, glass, and flame, the reader journeys from Victorian laboratories to the edges of the solar system, tracing how celestial events have repeatedly rewritten the face of the planet. Drawing on new research in impact stratigraphy, palaeoclimatology, and myth-archaeology, Atlantis Ragnarok shows that the legends of floods and falling stars were not mere metaphors but recollections of real catastrophe. The Norse twilight, the biblical deluge, the Hopi fire-rain-all are woven into one planetary chronicle of destruction and renewal. Combining historical scholarship, modern science, and literary eloquence, this volume restores awe to geology and meaning to myth. Atlantis Ragnarok is both a meditation on humanity's amnesia and a rediscovery of the cosmic forces that shaped our world-a reminder that stability is illusion, and that within every layer of Earth lies the memory of the sky's fire.
Autorenporträt
Riddick Dawson is a historian-author whose work moves at the crossroads of archaeology, mythology, and the hidden traditions of the ancient world. With the spirit of an adventurer and the rigor of a researcher, Dawson has dedicated his career to uncovering the forgotten narratives of humanity-from the lost cities beneath desert sands to the spectral voices of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Drawing on over two decades of study, Dawson's research dives deep into the shadowy domains of the Nephilim, the Anunnaki, and the Watchers of Genesis. His writings chart the intersections between biblical texts, Mesopotamian epics, and comparative myth, revealing startling connections that challenge orthodox timelines and conventional history. In the field, Dawson has pursued evidence across sacred landscapes-temples of Egypt, megaliths of the Near East, and mountain sanctuaries whispered about in apocryphal lore. Beyond the texts and ruins, Dawson is a storyteller. His voice-part scholar, part seeker-brings these ancient enigmas to life for a modern audience hungry to ask the deeper questions: Who were the gods of old? What legacies have they left hidden in stone and scripture? And what does their memory mean for humanity today?
